I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothin' to say
I come home in the mornin'
I go to bed feelin' the same way
And I ain't nothin' but tired
I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey baby
I could use just a little help
You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
Message keeps gettin' clearer
Radio's on and I'm movin' around the place
I check my look in the mirror
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
And then I ain't gettin' nowhere
I'm just livin' in a dump like this
Somethin' happenin' somewhere
Baby I just know there is
You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
You're sittin' around gettin' older
There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
Come on baby this laugh's on me
Stay on the streets of this town
And they'll be carvin' you up alright
They say you gotta stay hungry
Hey baby I'm just about starvin' tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sittin' around tryin' to write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on baby now give me just one look
You can't start a fire
Sittin' around and cryin' over a broken heart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
You can't start a fire
Carin' about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
Even if we're
Even if we're
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
Even if we're
Even if we're
Even if we dance
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancin' in the dark
